Rebel Blood Cells by Jamie Woods and Not Your Orlando by J Lock, G Parker, JP Seabright

https://punkdustpoetry.sumupstore.com/


Two pamphlets from Punk Dust Poetry, one about the experience of leukaemia, the other about trans and gender-fluid lives – distinct in subject matter but speaking with the same spirit and soul.


From Rebel Blood Cells I tagged Listening to William’s Last Words which dislocated you, Benches about how we remember, and PTSD / IET Guidance Notes for Registered Electricians which is clever in its metaphor.


From Not Your Orlando I only tagged Barbette for its rage against assimilation – People of cis straight whiteness too often think assimilation is inclusion. As someone who presents as a Cis White Man I need to continually sense check how I am using my privilege to create space for others to speak with there authentic voice.
